Since his early years in the mid-2000s, 8bit Ninja has been an unseen musical force striking from the shadows.  As a host of The Mix Up on CJSW 90.9 FM in Calgary,  8bit Ninja has interviewed many of the biggest names in Electronic music including Alex Metric, Vibesquad, Plump DJs, K+Lab, Woodn’Soo, Timothy Wisdom, Gaudi, Funkanomics, Morgan Page, and many more, as well as numerous live performances from local, regional and international artists.

8bit Ninja is also one of the forces behind Fozzyfest, a festival located on the shores of beautiful Lake Koocanusa in BC. 

As a DJ, 8bit Ninja has made a name for himself playing with his textbook Gameboy and incorporating it into sets.  His unique blend of multi-genre tracks along with synthetic Gameboy sounds has become a staple of his live show.  He’s shared stages with Chuurch, Unlimited Gravity, Jpod, Calvertron, Caged Baby, Tantric Decks, Shamanic Technology, Kursa, Treblesum, Melonade, Fat Pat, Ladytron and many others.  He’s also no stranger to western Canadian festivals, having played at Motion Notion, Connect, Fozzyfest, Vibrant, Wicked Woods, and many others.  

As a ninja, he hopes to continue his ascent from the shadows, wailing on his Gameboy and just otherwise being rad.
